While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5.

THE INTRODUCTION Communication for human beings is both fundamental and vitally im­ portant to the continuance of human society. From primitive times to the present, society has depended on the capacity to transmit intentions, desires, feelings, needs, knowledge and experience from one person to another. It would seem inevitable that such an important process, one so basic to the very existence of human society, would have been thoroughly investigated and researched. This, however, has not been the case. Only recently has communication become an area of interest for the social scientists. The essence of this paper is not directed at communication in gen­ eral. Its scope is limited to that aspect identified as mass communica­ tion. Mass communication is differentiated from other forms of human communication in that it refers to "...the relatively simultaneous ex­ posure of large heterogeneous audiences to symbols transmitted by im­ personal means from an organized source for whom the audience members are anonymous" (Larsen, 1964:348). It should also be noted that mass commu­ nication as used in a sociological sense is not to be equated with the technological knowledge necessary to transmit such messages. In this transmission of symbols to large heterogeneous audiences, messages are not sent to any specific individual. This definition of com­ munication excludes letters, telegrams, telephone calls, etc. Although the term "audience" can refer to any size group from a dozen listening to a lecture to several million watching the same television special, it usually is restricted to the latter type, where it is not possible for 2 the communicator to interact with the members on a one-to-one basis. Secondly, the members of the audience are heterogeneous in that they are not all of the same age, social class, etc. In other words, they form an aggregation of individuals from varied socio-economic statuses as well as educational and occupational levels. Also, the individual members of an audience generally remain anonymous to each other as well as to the com­ municator. It should be noted, however, that the ubiquity of the media as well as the standardization of content does provide a general context for interpersonal communication. Exposure to the mass communication message is rapid, public, and transient. It is rapid because the message often reaches several million people at one time as compared to those works of art in museums that are seen by relatively few. The message is public in that it is not directed at any particular individual and is open, therefore, for public surveil­ lance. The message is transient in that it is usually not preserved for posterity (of course, there are exceptions such as magazines, periodicals, etc.). One of the most rapid, public and transient of the mass communica­ tion phenomena is the medium of television. It is toward this medium that the focus of this paper is ultimately directed. This investigation is timely in that the impact of television is a contemporary real-world problem. It is a real-world problem in the sense that with a decreasing work week, and an enlarging population, an ever enlarging aggregate of people may be turning to television as a substitute for time formerly spent in work. What are the effects of increasing tele­ vision viewing? Of particular concern regarding effects is the question 3 of violence, a concern great enough to generate congressional hearings on broadcast violence. But violence is only one message out of many that needs to be investigated. What other messages may television broadcast? Few answers exist. In addition to being a real-world problem the impact of television is also a sociological problem. If sociology includes among its goals understanding, explanation, and prediction of social phenomena, then it would be remiss in not investigating a medium toward which so much of the populace directs its attention. Furthermore, sociological methods have not been utilized extensively in mass communication research. Therefore, it is a goal of this writer to contribute a parcel of knowledge to soci­ ological literature containing a theoretical perspective, a methodol­ ogical technique, and the development of testable hypotheses that may be investigated at some future date. The Prevalence of Television The technological capacities for the development of television were formulated in the latter 1920's and early 1930's. In 1931, Vladimir Zworykin eliminated the need for a cumbersome scanning disc, thereby providing a major technological breakthrough for the expanded use of television. On July 1, 1941, the Federal Communications Commission ap­ proved commercial television; by the end of that year, there were six communication stations and approximately 10,000 sets, half in New York City. Although production was interrupted by World War II, it picked up later; by January 1948, 102,000 sets; by April the number of sets had 4 doubled. During 1948, one million sets were manufactured, compared with 179,000 in 1947, and 6,500 in 1946 (Bogart, 1960:102). Although a rather recent invention, having been on the American scene some thirty years, the ubiquity of television is incontrovertible. Each evening in the comfort of one's living room, the television networks review the happenings of the day for the viewer. The viewer, if he is interested, can be exposed to various works of art from around the world by viewing the educational channel. On the other hand, if he wants a relaxing evening of entertainment, this is also provided by the tele­ vision medium.

Increasing attention is being given to what were once marginal themes: celebrity, reality television (including reality game-shows), television spectacles. Two recent books by leading media and cultural commentators have focussed, one explicitly and the other implicitly, on the consequences of the ‘supersaturation’ of social life with media images and media models (Gitlin, 2001; cf Kellner, 2003), of which celebrity, reality TV and spectacle form a taken-for-granted part.

  • NGO Report Submitted to the United Nations Committee for The
    NGO Report Submitted to the United Nations Committee for the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) In response to the second periodic report of the Government of the Syrian Arab Republic Geneva, Switzerland, July 2014 I. Introduction The violent armed conflict has entered its fourth year and is spreading to most Syrian regions, now divided into the so-called “regime-controlled territory” and “territory out of the regime control”. The Syrian people, including all classes and social formations, is paying a heavy price for the ongoing armed violence in various areas. Reports by UN agencies, local and international human rights organizations and experiences of countries with similar contexts shows that women bear the heaviest burden of such conflicts. Gender-based violence and discrimination had existed in Syria before the armed conflict and were emphasized by a number of laws and practices in public or private spheres. Patriarchal values and norms still govern the Syrian women’s lives and rights as sacred religious and social values. With the lack of international action toward what is happening in Syria, we would like to draw attention that, with the continuing armed conflict for more than three years, women have become vulnerable to all forms of violent practices and various human rights violations by different parties to the conflict, though with varied levels and forms between one party and another. Women suffer from killing, forced disappearances, detention, rape, kidnapping, internal and external displacement. They have to secure livelihood for their families in displacement areas and refuge countries. Child marriage and women trafficking have significantly increased particularily in the refuge host countries.

Further Notes on Why American Sociology Abandoned Mass Communication Research Abstract Communication research seems to be flourishing, as vidente in the number of universities offering degrees in communication, number of students enrolled, number of journals, and so on. The field is interdisciplinary and embraces various combinations of former schools of journalism, schools of speech (Midwest for ‘‘rhetoric’’), and programs in sociology and political science. The field is linked to law, to schools of business and health, to cinema studies, and, increasingly, to humanistically oriented programs of so-called cultural studies. All this, in spite of having been prematurely pronounced dead, or bankrupt, by some of its founders. Sociologists once occupied a prominent place in the study of communication— both in pioneering departments of sociology and as founding members of the interdisciplinary teams that constituted departments and schools of communication. In the intervening years, we daresay that media research has attracted rather little attention in mainstream sociology and, as for departments of communication, a generation of scholars brought up on interdisciplinarity has lost touch with the disciplines from which their teachers were recruited.

  • The Moral Basis of Family Relationships in the Plays of Shakespeare and His Contemporaries: a Study in Renaissance Ideas
    The Moral Basis of Family Relationships in the plays of Shakespeare and his Contemporaries: a Study in Renaissance Ideas. A submission for the degree of doctor of philosophy by Stephen David Collins. The Department of History of The University of York. June, 2016. ABSTRACT. Families transact their relationships in a number of ways. Alongside and in tension with the emotional and practical dealings of family life are factors of an essentially moral nature such as loyalty, gratitude, obedience, and altruism. Morality depends on ideas about how one should behave, so that, for example, deciding whether or not to save a brother's life by going to bed with his judge involves an ethical accountancy drawing on ideas of right and wrong. It is such ideas that are the focus of this study. It seeks to recover some of ethical assumptions which were in circulation in early modern England and which inform the plays of the period. A number of plays which dramatise family relationships are analysed from the imagined perspectives of original audiences whose intellectual and moral worlds are explored through specific dramatic situations. Plays are discussed as far as possible in terms of their language and plots, rather than of character, and the study is eclectic in its use of sources, though drawing largely on the extensive didactic and polemical writing on the family surviving from the period. Three aspects of family relationships are discussed: first, the shifting one between parents and children, second, that between siblings, and, third, one version of marriage, that of the remarriage of the bereaved.

    The Development of Television Studies PART ONE Theoretical Overviews 13 CTTC01 13 03/15/2005, 10:30 AM Horace Newcomb 14 CTTC01 14 03/15/2005, 10:30 AM The Development of Television Studies CHAPTER ONE The Development of Television Studies Horace Newcomb Since the 1990s “Television Studies” has become a frequently applied term in academic settings. In departments devoted to examination of both media, it parallels “Film Studies.” In more broadly dispersed departments of “Communi- cation Studies,” it supplements approaches to television variously described as “social science” or “quantitative” or “mass communication.” The term has be- come useful in identifying the work of scholars who participate in meetings of professional associations such as the recently renamed Society for Cinema and Media Studies as well as groups such as the National Communication Associa- tion (formerly the Speech Communication Association), the International Com- munication Association, the Broadcast Education Association, and the International Association of Media and Communication Research. These broad-based organ- izations have long regularly provided sites for the discussion of television and in some cases provided pages in sponsored scholarly journals for the publication of research related to the medium. In 2000, the Journal of Television and New Media Studies, the first scholarly journal to approximate the “television studies” desig- nation, was launched. Seen from these perspectives, “Television Studies” is useful primarily in an institutional sense. It can mark a division of labor inside academic departments (though not yet among them – so far as I know, no university has yet established a “Department of Television Studies”), a random occasion for gathering like- minded individuals, a journal title or keyword, or merely the main chance for attracting more funds, more students, more equipment – almost always at least an ancillary goal of terminological innovation in academic settings.

Something had to be done and Shelby was the one that took the initiative. Getting her real estate license, Shelby wanted to make money while Grant’s indecisions and insecurities caused friction between them.

  • Maisie Detached Herself from Hugh and Sat Down Again. "And If You Had Only Waited a Little Longer You Could Have Married Me Instead of Nora," She Said
    501 Maisie detached herself from Hugh and sat down again. "And if you had only waited a little longer you could have married me instead of Nora," she said. Hugh was startled by her frankness. The same thought had occurred to him within seconds of hearing the news--but he was ashamed of it. It was typical of Maisie to come right out and say what they were both thinking. He was not sure what to say, so he made a joke. "If a Pilaster married a Greenbourne, it would be not so much a wedding as a merger." She shook her head. "I'm not a Greenbourne. Solly's family never really accepted me." "You must have inherited a big chunk of the bank, though." "I've inherited nothing, Hugh." "But that's impossible!" "It's true. Solly had no money of his own. His father gave him a huge monthly allowance, but he never settled any capital on him, because of me. Even this house is rented. I own my clothes, furniture and jewellery, so I'll never starve. But I'm not the heir to the bank--and nor is little Bertie." Hugh was astonished. "The old man won't even provide for your son?" "Not a penny. I saw my father-in-law this morning." It was a shabby way to treat her, and Hugh as her friend felt personally wounded. "It's disgraceful," he said angrily. "Not really," Maisie said. "I gave Solly five years of happiness, and in 502 return I had five years of the high life.
